What do children read when no one is watching-or grading? When Kids Choose to Read offers a compelling look into the non-academic reading habits of middle school students in Vadodara City, revealing what truly captures their curiosity in the digital age. Moving beyond textbooks and test prep, this study uncovers the stories, formats, and influences that shape how adolescents engage with reading for leisure. Drawing insights from over 100 students, as well as parents and educators, Bijal Jani explores critical themes such as digital distractions, gender differences in reading behavior, and the quiet but powerful role of parental support. From storybooks and religious texts to online content and comics, the findings illuminate the wide spectrum of choices children make-and the factors behind them. At a time when screens compete for attention and reading habits are in flux, this book serves as a timely resource for educators, policymakers, researchers, and families who want to nurture a love for reading that goes beyond school walls.
